Man accused of sexually assaulting 8-year-old girl

A 20-year-old man has been accused of molesting an 8-year-old girl in Fort Bend County, authorities said.

Issac Horace is charged with aggravated sexual assault of a child in connection with incidents at his home off Bryan Road in the Rose Ranch Subdivision in the Rosenberg area, according to the Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies said Horace is being held in the Fort Bend County jail in lieu of $100,000 bond. He was taken into custody Sunday.

Deputies said Horace was stopped about 5:45 a.m. Sunday near FM 762 and Ricefield Road after there had been reports of a man wandering through the area. Horace told the deputy his mother had kicked him out of the house.

The deputy drove Horace to his home and talked to his mother. Authorities said the woman told the deputy her other children confided in her that they had seen a picture on Horace’s cellular phone of Horace engaging in sex acts with an 8-year-old girl.

Horace was taken to the county jail for further questioning. He may face additional charges.
